Quote from Sharona in Mr. Monk and the Billionaire Mugger
Sharona: Do you have any idea how hard it is to be a single parent? Adrian Monk: Um, no. Sharona: My paycheck bounced, Adrian. Adrian Monk: The lamp... Sharona: What are you gonna do about it? Adrian Monk: Guess I'll just have to sweep it up. Sharona: No, I'm talking about the money. I thought Leo Otterman paid us. Adrian Monk: He gave me an I.O.U. He said he was a little short. Sharona: No, no, no, no. Leo Otterman is not a little short. We just recovered one of his Picasso paintings that is worth over $2 million. Adrian Monk: He said that he wasn't liquid or whatever. He had some cash flow thing. Sharona: Adrian, this is a business with clients and expenses. I know money doesn't matter on Planet Monk, but I have a kid that expects three meals a day and sometimes gets sick. If you miss another paycheck, I'm quitting. This is very important, so I'm gonna say it again. If you miss one more paycheck, I'm quitting.
